General Forms

ADHD forms and policies

We recommend calling 7 days in advance in order to account for vacations, holidays and weekends.

Please allow 3 days for the refill of ADHD medication.

Your child requires a biannual visit every 6 months for follow-up and evaluation of their ADHD. No medications will be refilled if past this date. Your child’s annual well-visit take the place of one of these.

*As of January 1st, 2018 we will no longer be seeing ADHD patients at an interval of every 6 months. In accordance with American Academy of Pediatric recommended guidelines, we will start seeing these patients every 3 months for regular follow up. 4 total visits in a year, with 3 as follow-up appointments and one with the annual well visit. This is also in compliance with federal DEA mandates. We understand that this is a deviation from our past practices, but national standards of care have changed, and as always, we strive to provide the best care for our patients and their families.

Vanderbilt ADHD Rating Scales: Please print forms (one for each parent and one for each teacher) and bring the appropriate forms with you to your visit. Remember to allow for time for completion by both parents and teachers. You can also give a Teacher Form to your child’s coach or instructor.

After Hours policy
